"It's All So Long Ago" lyrics

I was so young
17. You were all 21
Driving 'round the country playing every dive bar in the land
Told them all at school I was a singer in a rock-n-roll band

And that's where it started

Would I ever go back, if I had the chance?
Teenage dream like a movie scene
And still the world keeps pulling me back
Time will come and take it all away
I feel alive like I did that day
It's all so long ago

I was dreaming all the time
Every night I'd see my name in lights
This is how we came here
This is where it all began
I'm a rolling stone. You were born a rambling man

And that's where we parted

Would I ever go back, if I had the chance?
A teenage dream like a movie scene
And still the world keeps pulling me back
Time will come and take it all away
I feel alive like I did that day
It's all so long ago

And if I never leave home tonight, I know I'll never leave this town again
And if we never let this movie play out, we'll never know how the story ends
My feet still stick to the floor
Of the bars we played those years before
It's all so long ago

It's all so long ago

Would I ever go back, if I had the chance?
Teenage dream like a movie scene
And still the world keeps pulling me back
Time will come and take it all away
I feel alive like I did that day
It's all so long ago

It's all so long ago
It's all so long ago

Time will come and take it all away
I feel alive like I did that day
